A bathhouse on a personal plot is a secret desire of every owner of land and households. The building is of great value. It lies in health benefits and artistic beauty. In an effort to acquire an exclusive, many are thinking about such an option as a bath with an attic. It has undoubted majesty and is equipped with numerous design nuances. Consider the intricacies of designing such a structure.

Peculiarities

The exclusivity of mansard baths implies the full implementation of a variety of design solutions. Choose the option of a bath house, taking into account the characteristic features. For lovers of designing various variations of structures, a bath with an attic will be an excellent way to implement their own ideas. One of the main superstructure of the attic is the staircase. The ascent to the attic in the bath will require its presence.

Counterbalancing points should be carefully considered, taking into account the pros and cons. Only after taking into account the main characteristics of a personal bathhouse is it allowed to consider design issues. Another design feature of the attic baths is the roof structure. It is important to consider the limitations of the attic. To make this floor useful, the roof of a broken gable structure is often used.

A single-pitched roof is undesirable, the type of a traditional gable version also cannot be called the most convenient. Hip roof structures are often used. The geometric parameters are more or less clear. Choose the option of lifting to the attic, taking into account one or another roof option. For example, marching options are considered the most effective, but they are difficult to mount in small areas. Marching devices are especially poorly adapted to the design of 4x4 m baths.

Boltsev ladders are equipped with the advantages of marching devices. Such systems cannot be applied to frame structures, since they require a strong load-bearing support. Steps are attached to the wall. If the bath is made of other materials, the device is perfectly acceptable for use.

Screw-type devices are not convenient, but they are effective in terms of saving space. Often they become a lifesaver in the project of a 4x4 or 5x5 m attic bath.

The best option for a project with a veranda, a terrace and an attic assumes the placement of rooms in the following order:

  • first floor;
  • steam room;
  • shower or washroom;
  • vestibule;
  • small veranda.

The veranda is often used as a dining area, filled with benches, chairs, tables. This space is usually open, so an atmosphere of simple natural beauty is created. However, the veranda is sometimes sacrificed to increase the internal area of ​​the bath. In the attic area, it is allowed to arrange a sleeping place, a playroom (for example, a billiard room), and a pantry. If the attic is a storage room, it is more expedient to equip the resting place below. For comfort in the attic, the total height of the room should be from 2.5 meters.

Building materials

In the modern market, there are many types of building materials that can be used for any bath. For example, they are built from:

  • timber;
  • logs;
  • foam blocks;
  • wood and wooden blocks;
  • aerated concrete;
  • rounded logs;
  • frame blocks;
  • glued laminated timber;
  • finished log house;
  • bricks.

If the project contains brick, foam concrete and aerated concrete, the walls presuppose the obligatory presence of cladding, both inside and outside. This feature is interconnected with the technical qualities of the materials. For example, a brick bath without insulation will be cold. The qualities of aerated concrete and aerated concrete are almost the same. The structural pores of these materials are capable of collapsing under the influence of high humidity and temperature differences. In this case, it is important to perform the facing of the foundations with the construction of the structure.

The most suitable material for building a bath is wood. Wood has environmental friendliness, reliability and strength, practicality and durability. Frame technologies are also used in such construction. In this case, the frame is allowed both wooden and metal. A cladding is mounted on top of the frame. Be sure to choose a high-quality insulation for such a structure, which will perform the function of insulating the entire structure.

The finishing of the frame building can be made from:

  • wood;
  • block panels;
  • lining.

Interior decoration can be made of plastic. The most economical and profitable technology for the construction of baths is frame. The frame does not need a massive foundation. Building materials in this case are not the most expensive. And the weight of the building will not have an additional effect on the ground.

Determining the material for building a bath is an important stage. In hardware stores, there are standard constructors from ready-made elements. On the basis of standard developments, an assembly kit is purchased. Parts of the constructor can be made with your own hands. For the construction of baths, wood materials are often used (for example, timber, logs, rounded wood), block panels are often considered. Having dealt with the raw materials for construction, they proceed to design.

Projects

Projects of a bath with an attic differ in size and layout. The most popular of them include structures 6x6, 6 by 4 m. Despite the fact that the buildings are compact and usually simple, they provide a good rest. This option is suitable for a small number of people, as well as for those who do not have extra space on the site.

The 6x4 m project plan assumes placement:

  • steam rooms;
  • shower room;
  • vestibule;
  • verandas.

Some small projects do not require a veranda. Sometimes the area of ​​the entrance area turns into a rest room. In this case, a guest room is placed on the attic floor. Sometimes the attic involves the placement of a pantry.

The ladder is placed so as not to clutter up the bathhouse. Structures 6x6 or 4x6 m also will not occupy the territory of the site. An equipped attic will make the building area more useful. At the same time, the internal dimensions of the bath rooms can vary at the request of the owner during construction.

The project of a bathhouse with an attic 6x8 m usually contains everything necessary for a large company to relax. This layout of the building even includes a bathroom. More often, a large terrace is provided here, there is a relaxation room of 20 square meters. The room can accommodate standard furniture and even a large table. A company of several people will fit at the table, while leaving a place for free use.

The building includes a classic shower room, a relaxation room. A spare bedroom will be located on the attic floor. It can be a billiard room, tennis room or gym. The material for the manufacture of the building will serve as a profiled beam.

The layouts of the baths 5x5 5x6, 5 by 9 m are a good compromise. It is important to arrange the location of the premises taking into account a well-thought-out plan. For example, a small bathhouse 5x5 m will house an entrance hall, a washroom, a steam room, a relaxation room or a storage room on the attic floor.

Choosing a suitable log house project is always a search for a compromise. The bath should suit all dimensions.When choosing a 6x9 or 7x8 m bath, it is important to take a serious approach to the layout of the site. Think over the placement of the bath correctly (especially if the land is only 6 acres).

Another important parameter is the construction cost. A large log house will require a larger area on the site. For example, a log house with 4x6 m parameters will cost 10,000-15,000 rubles more than a 4x5 m bathhouse. For a larger bath area, it will take more time and fuel for heating. The temperature in the steam room should be sufficient for the heat.

An important parameter for choosing the size of the bath is the number of people who will visit it. If the number of steam lovers does not exceed two people, it is enough to build a small and low structure. A large family and regular guests need a large structure. Draw the blueprints to define the layout correctly.

Zones

Let's say it is decided to build a 5x5 meter bathhouse.

If we consider the standard plans for functional areas, the main ones are three:

  • dressing room;
  • washing room;
  • steam room.

The layout option for a 5x5 m bathhouse implies placing the firebox not in the dressing room, but in a separate corner, separated by a wall. The same wall separates the dressing room from the steam room. The pre-bath room will turn out to be spacious. It is convenient to place a table and benches in it, as well as hangers. This room can be a living room.

Bath 5x5 m will allow you to place a company of 5-6 people. The attic floor in such a bath is often used as a small rest room. The attic can be equipped with a toilet and shower room. You should definitely think over communications.

In the bathhouse 5x5 m, it is important to install the doors correctly. For example, it is important to get directly from the guest room to the washroom. This arrangement will prevent heat loss from the steam room. The shower room can be allocated slightly less space than the steam room. Plan your steam room carefully. It is important to carefully consider the shapes and sizes of the shelves.

Do not forget that part of the area will be used for a stove and a stove. Its location should not be tight to the wall, otherwise there is a risk of fire for the sheathing and wooden walls. They expand the area of ​​small baths by supplying the building with a terrace. A small terrace can serve as a summer kitchen. The construction of the terrace will increase the amount of building material.

Communications

The rules imply the preparation of a building project simultaneously with the wiring of all the necessary communications. You will definitely need water, light (sometimes gas). The laying of water pipes takes place during the construction of the structure. Do not lose sight of the installation of a high-quality ventilation system in all rooms (including rest rooms), otherwise the humidity will increase. Humid air will cause fungus to appear on the walls. Some types of building material will begin to deteriorate quickly.

In order to maintain optimal heat in winter, it is important to provide a heating structure. Only with additional heating can an optimal temperature regime be achieved in cold weather. In addition to ventilation in the bath room, it is important to provide for high-quality waterproofing and thermal insulation. Installation of communication systems in a two-story building is easier to carry out than in a one-story building with annexes.

Advice

Planning work is a crucial stage in the construction of a bath. It must be approached with all responsibility.

After deciding on the planning issue, identify the following important organizational steps:

  • Take on board the popular sizes: 6x4, 6x6, 6x8 m.
  • Think over the materials from which the bath will be built.
  • You can download the program on your PC "3D Modeling". This will simplify the planning phase.

The standard room layout is usually as follows:

  • entrance from the terrace into a small hallway;
  • further there is a rest room or dressing room;
  • behind it there are two exits: a bathroom and a steam room.

Sometimes the shower room and the steam room are equipped with an additional entrance between themselves. All this is located on the ground floor.The second floor is often used for entertainment, recreation or household needs. Sometimes a solarium is set up on the second floor. This adds comfort to the rest of a large company.

Buy a ready-made standard constructor. Create a standard bath from the assembly kit. Coming up with your own options for the details of the arrangement is more difficult. If the properties of the soil on the site are unstable, use frame constructors for the construction of the attic complex. Columnar and screw structures of the foundation will contribute to the strengthening of the bath's foundation.

In any case, soft ground will require powerful piles or special armlents. In a building that is close in shape to a cube (with roofing rooms), there is less heat loss. It will take less firewood and less time to warm up such a bath. A one-story building with the same parameters and auxiliary rooms below will require more firewood and more time for heating.

In addition to the properties of the soil, it is important to take into account the aesthetics of the location of the bath on the site. The project with an attic and a terrace implies the presence of monitored landscapes. They will become an important part of the rest. Do not forget to protect the under-roof room from temperature extremes. This is difficult, since heat and humidity will penetrate to the floor from below, and the summer sun will warm up the roof. In winter, it will be especially cold in the attic.

Pay attention to waterproofing in the interfloor and under-roof space. Modern building materials allow you to combine a Russian steam bath with a stove with a house under a common roof and attic floor. Such a house-bath project is not devoid of advantages, but it also has disadvantages. The main difference between such projects from ordinary houses and baths is the shape of the roof, which cannot but affect the supporting structures. Consider wall thickness and foundation depth. Think carefully about the functional features of the housing.

Beautiful examples

Consider beautiful examples of an attic bath. Some examples of projects involve combining a steam room with a relaxation room on the ground floor. Then the rest room is equipped in the attic. A successful project accommodates a steam room, a shower room, a dressing room, a bathroom, and a recreation room. The second floor (attic) can be used as a bedroom, hall, not forgetting about the balcony.

Spacious mansard baths are especially popular today: it is impractical to equip an attic floor in a tiny structure. Modest log cabins of 3x4 or 4x4 m are expanded by increasing the volume of the first floor. There may be a full-fledged game room or cinema here. The mansard bath is often complemented by a veranda. It is more convenient to sit with a company at a large table on a fresh vacation.
